We measured CO2 reduction in wastewater flowing into the ocean. Why can’t we count that as carbon removal?

The peer-reviewed results of the world’s first successful trial of coastal Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement (OAE) were just published in the scientific journal Nature Communications Earth and Environment.  The results of the test confirm the expected reduction of CO2 in the effluent and the rapid dilution after discharge. It’s a dramatic and clear measurement, showing that […]

World first protocol for Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement

The team at Planetary is excited to be the first supplier to be signed up to Isometric’s newly published protocol for durable carbon removal through Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement (OAE). Isometric is a carbon credit certification platform on a mission to build trustworthy carbon markets by certifying only the most scientifically rigorous carbon credits. Carbon credit […]

“An Alkaline Solution” – Planetary and OAE highlighted in Science

  Planetary’s work in Nova Scotia has been highlighted in a Science magazine feature.   The feature takes our Tufts Cove project as a case study while describing the broader state of Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement (OAE) research internationally, noting rising interest in the field, significant environmental and economic potential, and ongoing work being done to […]
